Considerable promise during light career for Karl Burke and better than ever when getting up close home in small field on his stable/seasonal debut at Pontefract (6f, good); there can be optimism that he will be fine back up to 7f and on slower ground, and he could have more to offer; contender.

AW winner (5f) for Karl Burke as a 2yo; ran well over C&D on last season's reappearance and his fourth in a big field at York on his handicap debut came off a 3lb higher mark; two subsequent efforts are excusable (Listed company and then 7f on slow ground); sold for 32,000gns in October; unexposed as a sprinter and now drops in class; stable also runs Sixtygeesbaby.

Started favourite on his first nine starts last year, winning two of them, both off lower marks; hit traffic over an inadequate 5f on his comeback a few weeks ago, which will ensure he's popular once again for a yard also responsible for Cairdeas.

Won his first two starts and he was a close second on his handicap debut last June (6f, good to firm); struggled thereafter, albeit pitched into a Group 1 at Royal Ascot; gelded during his 132-day absence; could still have some potential and switching to AW shouldn't be a problem.

Surged back to form when beating Yes I'm Mali 1l over C&D (good ground) three weeks ago; no obvious reason why he won't give his running again but a 6lb rise means he'll probably need a personal best to follow up.

Goes well fresh and he scored on his seasonal/handicap debut last April; again ran well when close third off this mark on his comeback (also Ripon, 6f) this term; he didn't back it up when suffering a heavy defeat at York last time, albeit from a poor draw, but this represents a drop back in grade so he's not dismissed.

Ended a lengthy losing run at Newcastle in March and added to his tally with a Thirsk win last month (6f, good); better form when a close third in a Class 3 at Newbury three weeks ago and a 1lb rise is manageable; conditions won't be an issue having finished third in a Wokingham in his prime; high on the list.

His six successes include four last season; his second at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) in May shows he retains all his ability and two lesser efforts since have resulted in him dropping to 1lb below his last winning mark; has done most of his winning over 6f but scored over 7f in 2024.
